Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 조심스레 돌리면 1971년에 병입된 옛 클라인리시의 은은한 금빛이 흔들린다. 코끝에 가져가면 셰리가 이끄는 농장 내음과 훈제 베이컨, 말린 버섯과 커피의 향이 깊게 열린다. 한 모금을 머금으면 43도임에도 훈연한 차와 염장 고기, 미역과 왁스가 강단 있게 번진다. 삼킨 뒤 호두주 같은 셰리의 흔적과 후추가 오래된 하이랜드 몰트의 결을 길게 남긴다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
quite a different beast altogether, almost certainly more sherry-driven, with a more expansive nose showing farmyardy and even meaty tones (smoked bacon), already hinting at the polishes (metal, leather, wood) that would later become hallmarks of early Brora. Gorgeous notes of dried mushrooms (morels, porcini), coffee, pu-ehr tea and tobacco. Hugely impressive
restaurant Palate
but it’s almost aggressive, despite over fifty years in glass! Smoked teas, cured meats, seaweed, tobacco, mandarins, a dash of seawater, then that proverbial wax…
timer Finish
long, more austere, with the arrival of walnut wine, perhaps from the sherry influence. Quite peppery as well
